Roman! Sounds like a pretty intense workout with Crossfit. So, the 2 theories you presented both are both correct for you. Eat throughout the day; eat some light snack prior to your workouts, and load up proteins right afterwards. Here is the key though: try eating more baked sweet potatoes, avocados, natural peanut butter, nuts and other fruits and veggies (good calories) throughout the day, and try to stay away from sugary foods like milk, juices, sports drinks, sweet snacks (bad calories) as this will slow down your metabolism. This should do it. Hope this has been helpful!
